NISMO has announced a new high-performance "Sports Resetting" program for the Nissan GT-R and GT-R Spec-V.
Available in Japan, the Sports Resetting program replaces the factory engine control module and transmission control module with specially designed units which increase torque and improve shifting response. Although NISMO failed to provide any performance data, they did state that the Sports Resetting package "will enable sporty and safe stress-free driving at any racetrack or enclosed space."
The program includes a two year rental agreement for ¥294,000 ($3,065 USD / €2,248), with a subsequent yearly rental fee of ¥31,500 ($328 USD / €241), and is fully guaranteed by NISMO. Upon the end of the rental, NISMO reinstalls the original ECM and TCM modules.
